I have very strong feelings for a boy who is also bipolar, and has a long and dark history of SH. Knowing that he used to cut himself does not diminish my attraction to him in any way; if anything, it strengthens it, because I know that he is an incredible person for going through so much pain and surviving.
I've SI'd sporadically. I don't have any obvious scars. But if I did and someone I was dating had a problem with it, then they weren't really someone I ought to be interested in anyway.
